A funny story about her is one time I was visiting her in her apartment in KC, KS, she was taking her pills. She dropped one on the kitchen floor and she said, "Oh, Mende will you help me look for it"? I said, "Sure what does it look like"? She said, "Well, huh, it's round with the corners cut off" We laughed and laughed and even years later we would joke about something being round with corners cut off.
